Custom sovereigns use a point-buy system. You can choose to have more traits, more spells, or more equipment - but not all at once.

FWIW - Nexus now claims to support all games by letting you specify any unlisted games when uploading files. So if someone wants to create a LH area there they presumably could. That wouldn't move all of the existing LH mods over, though (no idea if Nexus has any facilities for doing that, and you'd probably need to contact all the different authors, etc.)

I agree that the population values seem a bit low for what are essentially the world's major commercial/industrial centers, even presuming medieval levels of technology. The population numbers as stated don't seem sufficient to sustain the amount of industry/agriculture going on. If it helps your immersion, you could assume the numbers are to be multiplied by 10, which should be a bit closer to realism (at least on the high side)... To go back to your initial ask

In the spirit of nitpicking, I'd like to point out that these are all misspellings rather than grammatical mistakes. Also, the greengrocers' apostrophe in the graphic makes me sad. [e digicons]:typo:[/e] Carry on. [e classic];)[/e]

[quote who="webusver" reply="345" id="3450330"]I'm making an update. I have got lots of thoughts since March 02 and all default sovereigns will have predefined paths and all custom sovereigns will not have this feature. What are your proposals for paths of sovereigns?[/quote] Might also have a look at Primal_Savage's solution here: https://forums.elementalgame.com/451107/page/6/#134 ..

I might look into ways to prevent that[/quote] Hrm...I don't see any way to enforce making sure players only choose a single item, but for preventing dual-classing, could you give the path traits an invalid PreReq\RestrictedAbilityBonusOption? Or does the path selection screen respect that? OTOH, I guess

Couldn't really do either-or choices or force them into "specializations" (e.g. summoner) but it might be better than seeing another Ceresa-Warrior or Markin-assassin.

I can't think of any other way to stop other units from walking through the tower after it as been killed. I guess I will have to just live with it even if it looks stupid every once and awhile.[/quote] Perhaps you could replace the graphic with a "ruined tower" graphic as an on-death condition?

This is a known issue and is supposed to be fixed in the next (1.6) patch per the changelog here: https://forums.elementalgame.com/451979/ Incidentally, it affects more than spiders, but you may or may not have experienced it with other types of charmed creatures in your particular games.

Did you try logging in to see? That would seem to be the most direct way to find out... At one point there was a discount applied in Steam and Stardock's storefronts if you already owned Fallen Enchantress, but there was previously a post in this forum indicating that the discount was going to expire; no idea if they have extended that program. Aside from that, Stardock and Steam have periodically had sales on Fallen Enchantress and its DLCs; if you're strapped y

As a for instance, here's some instructions for a VAIO computer: <a href="http://forum.notebookreview.com/sony/716567-guide-how-disa

Hrm...if you're playing on a laptop, make sure that it doesn't have any kind of auto-brightness adjustment enabled. Other than that, I believe Primal_Savage responded in your support forum thread with some settings to try. Good luck!

Not sure what you mean by darkening. Note that if you're playing an Empire faction and your influence spreads, the land around will change to a darker, somewhat blue, hue. Or do you mean something that applies globally, e.g. even over menus & dialogues, etc.?

As a possible workaround, you could create duplicate sovereign files, each otherwise identical with just 2 of the AI traits in question. You would probably want to check on the selected opponents, though, to avoid getting multiples of a given sovereign in one game.
